What's Next For Mozilla?

Posted by timothy on from the what-isn't dept.

ezberry writes "After releasing version 1.0 of Firefox, what's ahead for the Mozilla Foundation and the venerable Firefox browser? With 6% of the market, and a notable exclusion from Google's desktop search software, PC World states that Mozilla may be thinking about adding desktop searching to the browser. Using plugins from third party vendors (and more), desktop searching may become a regular part of firefox. The article also talks about Mozilla improving firefox's popup blocker and getting OEMs to include firefox on their machines."

    Mozilla has a team of people writing virii/worms for IE to get people to switch, they just need to crank out more!

    Are you trying to tell us that lynx is a better browser? Where do I get it? I am paying for Internet for Broadband, which isn't supposed to be a slow connection.

    No I am not. Which part of "it also works nicely in Firefox on a fat connection" made you think that? May I suggest that you get a grown-up to read and explain it to you?

    But thank you anyway for proving a causal link between ignorance, functional illiteracy, and homophobia.
